Perhaps this is why the place has so many nicknames, including, but not limited to \u201cKeystone State,\u201d \u201cOil State,\u201d and \u201cQuaker State.\u201d<br \/>\nWe know, none of these are particularly thrilling, but don\u2019t let that fool you. This state is simply filled with excitement, in some cities more than others. So which place in the Coal State (yep, that\u2019s one too) was the most exciting? According to our latest analysis at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Movoto Real Estate<\/a> blog, that honor goes to Pittsburgh.<br \/>\nHere are the 10 most exciting places in Pennsylvania\/State of Independence\/the state with too many nicknames:<br \/>\n1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/pittsburgh-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Pittsburgh<\/a><br \/>\n2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/west-chester-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Borough of West Chester<\/a><br \/>\n3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/lancaster-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Lancaster<\/a><br \/>\n4. Borough of State College<br \/>\n5. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/phoenixville-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Borough of Phoenixville<\/a><br \/>\n6. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/easton-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Easton<\/a><br \/>\n7. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/philadelphia-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Philadelphia<\/a><br \/>\n8. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/reading-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Reading<\/a><br \/>\n9. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/harrisburg-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Harrisburg<\/a><br \/>\n10. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/bethlehem-pa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of Bethlehem<\/a><br \/>\nIf there\u2019s one thing I\u2019ve learned from visiting Pennsylvania, it\u2019s that you don\u2019t mess with Philadelphians. You just don\u2019t. So what were we thinking, publishing a list where Philly wasn\u2019t at the top?<br \/>\nWell, we really didn\u2019t have much to do with it, to be honest; the math does it all. Keep on reading to find out the method behind this analysis, and just what makes each of these places so exciting.<\/p>\n<h2>How We Got These Exciting Results<\/h2>\n<p>As mentioned above, in order to come up with any of our Big Deal Lists, we rely on the magic of numbers to create a ranking that is completely unbiased. So, to start, we gathered a list of the top 50 most populous places in Pennsylvania. Then we used the 2010 U.S. Census and business listings to get information about the following eight criteria:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nightlife per capita (bars, clubs, comedy, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Live music venues per capita<\/li>\n<li>Active life options per capita (parks, outdoor activities, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Arts and Entertainment per capita (movie theaters, festivals, galleries, theaters, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Fast Food restaurants per capita (the fewer the better)<\/li>\n<li>Percentage of restaurants that are not fast food (the higher the better)<\/li>\n<li>Percentage of young residents ages 18 to 34 (the higher the better)<\/li>\n<li>Population density (the higher the better)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then, we ranked each of these places with a score of one to 50 in each of these criteria, with the lower score being the more exciting place. We averaged these scores into an overall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/kind-of-a-big-deal-lists\/\">Big Deal Score<\/a> for each location, and the place with the lowest was our most exciting spot, which in this case was Pittsburgh.<br \/>\nSo, you see, you can\u2019t really argue with math. But if you\u2019d like to try, feel free to take it to the comments section at the end. You\u2019ll also find a complete table showing the rankings of all 50 places down there, but first, we\u2019ll go ahead and take a closer look at our winners, starting with Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Pittsburgh<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/1.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Brian Donovan<\/div>\n<p>With a population of over 305,000, Pittsburgh is one of the largest cities in the state and the 16th most densely populated. But it\u2019s not the number of people that make this place exciting; it\u2019s the type of people.<br \/>\nPittsburgh is filled with artists, musicians, foodies, and a whole lot of young people. In fact, it ranked fourth in this category, for its 35.81 percent of the population between the ages of 18 and 34. Perhaps that\u2019s why there are so many bars, clubs, and music venues per capita.<br \/>\nIf the nightlife scene isn\u2019t your thing, Pittsburgh has plenty of excitement in the way of art and food, and in the case of one restaurant called Bar Marco, a little of both.<\/p>\n<h2>2. West Chester<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/2.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Melissa<\/div>\n<p>What could be more exciting than Philadelphia? Well, apparently the little borough of West Chester. Of course, this shouldn\u2019t surprise residents; after all, West Chester is one of the youngest places in the state, with 57.53 percent of its population between the ages of 18 and 34.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s also the second most densely populated place in Pennsylvania, so whether you\u2019re out walking from Jake\u2019s to Square Bar (where it ranked fifth for nightlife) or jogging along High Street (where it ranked fifth for active life options per capita), you\u2019re bound to bump into someone you know, or meet somebody new. Either way, it\u2019s pretty exciting.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Lancaster<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user PJrhymeswithsausage<\/div>\n<p>There is a good reason that among health care, public administration, and manufacturing, tourism is one of Lancaster\u2019s primary industries; this place is awesome. Since that\u2019s not very descriptive, allow us to elaborate.<br \/>\nLancaster\u2019s awesomeness comes mostly in the form of a bustling nightlife, ranking 7th in this category, and in its number of arts and entertainment options per capita, ranking 6th here.<br \/>\nAside from places like the Lancaster Arts Hotel and Prima Theatre, this city also has a relatively young population, with 31.14 percent of people being between the ages of 18 and 34.<\/p>\n<h2>4. State College<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/4.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Borough of State College<\/div>\n<p>If you thought Lancaster had a young population, just wait until you visit State College, where 80.04 percent of residents are between the ages of 18 and 34\u2014a number that would just be insane, if this place weren\u2019t home to Penn State.<br \/>\nAside from the schools, though, State College has a lot going on, even for that handful of people who aren\u2019t students (probably faculty). It is easily one of the most densely populated places in the state, so you\u2019re always bound to run into somebody, and for the number of residents, this place is simply littered with nightlife and music venues.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Phoenixville<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/5.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Forge Theatre<\/div>\n<p>This borough of just over 16,000 is like Burning Man meets suburbia in a classic movie with a kick-butt soundtrack.<br \/>\nIn other words, not only did Phoenixville rank well in our analysis for its nightlife, music venues, and arts options per capita, but it\u2019s also home to the bonfire Firebird Festival each year, and the Colonial Theatre, where scenes from the classic movie \u201cThe Blob\u201d were filmed!<br \/>\nIf that\u2019s not exciting enough for you, Phoenixville also came in high for its active life options. So you see, Burning Man meets suburbia in a classic movie, with a kick-butt soundtrack. Boom.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Easton<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/6.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: P. Boccadoro<\/div>\n<p>Home to Lafayette College, Easton has a pretty high percentage of people between the ages of 18 and 34: 31.7 percent, to be exact. Of course, with young people, come bars. Lots of bars.<br \/>\nEaston ranked third overall for its number of nightlife options per capita, places like Drinky\u2019s and the Lafayette Bar. It also ranked third, though, for its number of arts and entertainment places per capita\u2014but let\u2019s be honest, the Crayola Experience alone is excitement enough for any artist or artist in the making.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Philadelphia<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/7.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Chriszak<\/div>\n<p>Alright, Philly, you knew you\u2019d make the list at some point, and here you are at No. 7. Still a very respectable spot!<br \/>\nSo why is everybody so crazy about this city? What makes it so exciting? Well, according to our analysis, it has a lot more to do with food, music venues, and a whole lot of people than anything else. With a population of over 1.5 million, this city is not only the largest in the state, but also the most densely populated.<br \/>\nAs far as food goes, well, it\u2019s almost hard to know where to begin. There\u2019s Amada, Morimoto, Zahav, and, of course, Pat\u2019s King of Steaks for the most exciting Philly cheese steak your mouth has ever met. There\u2019s Buddakan, Tinto, and Vedge for your veggie heads. And, well, there are simply too many options to list. Just go out there and eat something.<\/p>\n<h2>8. Reading<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/8.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Jessy Rone<\/div>\n<p>Rather than really nailing it one or two categories like some of our top 10, Reading ranked moderately well across the board, bumping it up to No. 8. This fifth most densely-populated city in the state is home to the sixth highest number of music venues per capita, and the 17th most young people.<br \/>\nIt also ranked No. 17 for its number of arts and entertainment options per capita, with places like Goggleworks Center for the Arts and the Reading Public Museum; and No. 18 for its nightlife venues per capita, like the oh so adorable Winedown Cafe and Wine Bar.<\/p>\n<h2>9. Harrisburg<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/9.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Landon Hollis<\/div>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for nightlife, look no further than the capital city. Yes, that\u2019s right, more than Philadelphia, more than Pittsburgh, and even more than the college town of all college towns, State College, Harrisburg has more nightlife per capita than anywhere else on our list.<br \/>\nIt also ranked among the best for its arts (fourth in this category), active life options seventh here), and music venues per capita (11th), like the Forum Auditorium, the Champ, and the charming Carley\u2019s Ristorante &amp; Piano Bar, just to name a few.<\/p>\n<h2>10. Bethlehem<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/images\/10.jpg\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user Jack<\/div>\n<p>Home to Lehigh University, Moravian College, and the IIRP, Bethlehem is simply filled with young people. As a matter of fact, 29.28 percent of its population is between the ages of 18 and 34.<br \/>\nIt may not come as a surprise, then, that Bethlehem ranked 12th for its nightlife, but where it really excelled was in its number of music venues per capita, ranking No. 1 in this category.<br \/>\nIf venues like ArtsQuest Center, Sands Event Center, SteelStacks, and Musikfest Cafe aren\u2019t your jam, there are also plenty of other ways to entertain yourself, like the oh so awesome Frank Banko Alehouse Cinema, or any number of galleries, as Bethlehem also ranked an impressive 12th for its arts per capita.<\/p>\n<h2>Another Nickname For Youse Guys<\/h2>\n<p>Okay, so you\u2019ve got the \u201cKeystone State,\u201d \u201cOil State,\u201d \u201cCoal State,\u201d \u201cState of Independence,\u201d and even the \u201cQuaker State,\u201d but after looking at this data, it seems like you\u2019re missing the most appropriate nickname: \u201cExciting State.\u201d Well, at least in these 10 places, and especially in Pittsburgh.<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re wondering how the rest of the 50 places we looked at ranked, just youse check out the table below.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/table.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Most Exciting Places in Pennsylvania\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/07\/exciting-pennsylvania\/exciting.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Embed Gallery The 10 Most Exciting Places In Pennsylvania By Movoto Real Estate Pennsylvania is a state of many things: big cities, small towns, nature, urban life.
